For one week only, enjoy 30 of Berlin’s best pizzerias at a lovingly discounted rate.

Berlin’s pizza scene has never been better. Who needs to go to Naples when we have pizza places as good as Futura, Malafemmena and Monella? Naples’ famous Da Michele restaurant has even just opened a branch in Schöneberg. The pizza scene has been given a much-needed kick up the arse, and everyone selling slices in the city has had to seriously up their game. And they have.

Berlin’s biggest supporters of Italian cuisine, True Italian, are enthusiastic pizza evangelists. They do much to celebrate Italian food around the city, putting on events that essentially say ‘hey, this restaurant is amazing – go there!’.

Their True Italian Pizza Week celebrates the city’s finest pizza restaurants. It returns to Berlin between October 15th-21st. 30 restaurants across the city – hand-picked by the True Italian team – are offering you the chance to try their best pizzas (along with an Aperol Spritz or soft drink) for the highly reasonable price of 12€.

We’ve been loving True Italian Pizza Week for years, and I guess they noticed – we’re now media partners for the event. A big difference this year though is that True Italian have taken their concept Germany-wide – there will be participating restaurants in most major German cities.

How does True Italian Pizza Week work?

Between October 15th-21st, 30 ‘True Italian’ restaurants will be participating in the event across Berlin. Each will offer two varieties of pizza, each one representing the regional ingredients and cooking traditions which inspire them.

You’ll be able to order one of these pizzas and either an Aperol Spritz or soft drink for just 12€.

Not a bad offer, eh? The best thing is that you can fall into your favourite local pizzeria, test out one of Berlin’s big names, or head out into the pizza-unknown by picking one at random, all without breaking the bank.

What does it mean to be ‘True Italian’?

Although the event is sponsored by the Municipality of Napoli, you don’t have to be Italian to get the coveted title of ‘True Italian’ in Berlin. It’s political correctness gone mad!

No, it all comes down to ingredient choice (the best, of course), the actual time the dough is left to rise (at least 9 hours), and the oven used to fire the pizzas to perfection in seconds. Needs to taste good un’ all.
